Package Exports
- openstreetmap-stream
This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (openstreetmap-stream) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.
Readme
Installation
$ npm install openstreetmap-streamNote: you will need node and npm installed first.
The easiest way to install node.js is with nave.sh by executing [sudo] ./nave.sh usemain stable
Usage
You can extract the openstreetmap data from a file stream:
var osm = require('openstreetmap-stream');
// wget https://s3.amazonaws.com/metro-extracts.mapzen.com/auckland_new-zealand.osm.pbf
osm.createReadStream( 'auckland.osm.pbf' )
.pipe( osm.stringify )
.pipe( process.stdout );Roll your own
The easiest way to get started writing your own pipes is to use through2; just make sure you call next().
var osm = require('openstreetmap-stream'),
through = require('through2');
// wget https://s3.amazonaws.com/metro-extracts.mapzen.com/auckland_new-zealand.osm.pbf
osm.createReadStream( 'auckland.osm.pbf' )
.pipe( through.obj( function( data, enc, next ){
console.log( data.type, data.id, data.lat, data.lon );
next();

}Advanced Usage
You can extract the openstreetmap data from an existing file stream:
var osm = require('openstreetmap-stream'),
fs = require('fs');
fs.createReadStream( './auckland_new-zealand.osm.pbf' )
.pipe( osm.parser() )
.pipe( osm.stringify )
.pipe( process.stdout );You can also extract the data from stdin using a unix pipe:
var osm = require('openstreetmap-stream');
process.stdin
.pipe( osm.parser() )
.pipe( osm.stringify )
.pipe( process.stdout );#!/bin/bash
cat auckland_new-zealand.osm.pbf | node stdin.js;NPM Module
